Pontoon, Catamaran discussion
All that good stuff said. Here is a link to a "You Tube" video of
what must be the ultimate trailer cruiser. I have a fast DSL link,
I'm not sure if you can do "You Tube" with dial up.

Here also is a link to the designer's website. The prototype is
complete and sailing.

IMO one implication of this design is that one could build a huge
boat that would readily fit into a 40' container and ship the thing
to Europe, or anywhere and then shore cruise from there.
With some imagination, it may be possible to drop the mast,
partially fold the bridges, and canal cruise under power, then
quickly expand the boat back to 'full size' for open water sailing.
Pretty amazing.
